Edit: Sorry for the foul language. Like I said, it was a message to a friend; besides I thought that it would censor it out when I posted it anyways and it would just show up as bleeps. I didn't realize that there was a language filter that had to constantly fix it; figured it fixed it when I first posted.

I just sent this message to my bestfriend on myspace, rather than type it out again I'll just paste what I sent him.

"Man... some weird ass f***n s**t just happened to me...
You know those times when something goes amiss and you are for sure you put it in a certain spot, its just like it was moved or something..

Well.. I got a Big Red out of my sisters room earlier and walked to mine. I'm 100% sure I brought it in here.. I just read a bulletin from Jordan, Johns nephew, talkings about how some girl was walking how and seen a guy at the end of a ally she took for a short cut and she prayed that nothing bad would happen. She walked right past him, then later she found out like 20 minutes after she pasted that guy a girl was raped in that same spot. (just another one of those religious bulletins) well.. She supposidly identified the man and she told the cop all I she wanted to know was why he didn't go for her? And the guy said because she had 2 tall men walking on both sides of her. Well.. this is where it gets weird.. I sent Jordan a message back and was like What about the thousands of kids sexually abused everyday who pray everytime that God would help. Where is their 2 tall men?

and I swear I f***ing went to drink my soda and that s**t was gone.. I was like what the f**kk... Idk it might have happened when I went to the restroom like right before I read the bulletin.. but idk man.. I started looking all over the room and the bathroom and I was like oh my fking god you got to be s**ting me.. What the hell... and I kept looking and I was like.. Dude quit f***ing with me.. and I went into the kitchen and I SWEAR in this same spot there was already a soda when I walked through there the first time.. I KNOW I seen it.. I'm 100% sure.. Because I remember thinking my sister has been hiding these sodas from me and I've been thirsty and I wondered why I didn't notice that there before and wonder where they came from.
So at first I didn't even bother to see if that was my soda (it was sittin on the bar like.. on the other side of a monitor in there.. out of the way, so there is no way I would have put it there, you have to lean over the table to grab it.. but I know 100% sure it was there when I first walked through there.. and I was like wtff so I went back to the room, checked again and the bathroom.. then I went back in there and checked that soda sitting next to the monitor on the bar and holy s**t it was my damn soda. Man that s**ts f***ing with me bad right now.. I'm 100% sure that I didn't put that there, and I'm 100% sure that was there when I first walked through there... I don't know what to think of it.. if it's like.. an act of God for saying that sh!t in a message.. or like.. a worm hole or something because that s**t was sitting there when I first walked through there on the bar and I had my soda in my hand.. I'm tripping out right now.. I don't think I'm losing my mind.. I was feeling fine.. Man.. thats some f***ing crazy ass s**t right there... f***in A.. I mean.. I couldn't have just forgot and set it there because I seen it when I came back through there after getting the soda. (Mine was in my hand.).. It's not like there wasn't one there and then there was.. It's like the sh** happened before it happened.. idk man.. I'm just blown away right now.. I don't know what to think about this.."

What do you guys think? Is God messing with me? I'm an agnostic theist btw.

For those of you who don't know what that is: An agnostic theist is one who views that the truth value of certain claims, in particular the existence of god(s) is unknown or inherently unknowable but chooses to believe in god(s) in spite of this.

And originally I believed in deism (Deists typically reject supernatural events (prophecy, miracles) and tend to assert that God does not interfere with human life and the laws of the universe. ) But now I'm not so sure.. it could be possible that God already planned for this to happen when he originally created the universe, like a wormhole appearing the instant I walked into my restroom or something of that sort. But that still doesn't explain why it seems my drink took the place of another already there. Though it is possible that that drink was my drink when I passed it. Like some sort of time travel or something. I'm not sure what I believe now.. this just completely blew my mind and I'm going to have to rethink my entire belief in deism. I'm just blown away right now.. man..

I need to chill out. I'll check for grammer errors in a bit lol.

edit: Btw, sorry for all the bleeps lol. I didn't intend for this to be on this forum I'm a dirty mouth =x (fixed)

I'm sorry, I don't really get it.

You replied to a religious myspace post in a negative way, and then what happened to your soda? You had it but lost it, or it moved? I really don't understand what's up with the soda lol.

Anyone else?

I noticed a soda on the bar when I walked through kitched after first getting one from my sisters room. I sat down, replied to the bulletin, got up to use the bathroom, came back and couldn't find my soda. Looked all over my room and the bathroom and started tripping out because I was 100% I just had my soda on the computer desk (I was drinking it while typing the bulletin.) I went back and looking around in the kitchen (the soda I noticed when I walked through there the first time was still there.) It wasn't sitting on the counters in the kitchen and I even looked in my sisters room. I came back to my room, looked around here again, then started getting a feeling like someone was ****ing with me. (No one is home except for me.) I went back into the kitchen and looked again, and I reached over to pick up the soda that was on the bar, expecting it to be empty, and it was half full and the soda I was drinking in my room. Get it now?

edit: Btw, I'm 100% sure that drink my the bar was mine. I'm the only person I know who opens their drinks only slightly, and this was the first Big Red i've drank in months. And about the religious bulletin, I'm not religious at all and this isn't like a religious post. I believe in living my life and being a good person, and if there is a God then I will go to Heaven, regardless if I worshipped him or not. I believe it only has to do with if you are "good" or "bad" (if there is a Heaven/Hell/or God). The first thought after finding my soda in a different place though was the bulletin because thats what I did right before I lost it; I'm not sure if that was the reason, like an act of God. Or what, I'm confused and I was wondering if anyone had any ideas. Like anyone had anything like this happen before or something.. I don't know what to believe.

(I didn't think it was that hard to understand, though I was quite shaken up while typing that message to my friend.)

Missing time maybe?

Seriously, I've been absolutely sure that I put something in one place, but when I'd go to get it, it'd be gone, only to find it somewhere else. I usually attribute it to me absent-mindedly placing it where I found it, on a subconscious level and not realizing or remembering it, all the while thinking I had put it right next to me. If that makes sense.

That makes perfect sense. Though this was more extreme of an absent minded move than just forgetting and placeing it next to me; which I thought about very hard afterwards. This also doesn't explain why I seen a soda in the spot I found mine on the bar (the only one in the kitchen mind you), while walking from my sisters room with my new fresh soda in my hands. I also know I'm not confused about this fact because when I noticed the soda sitting on the bar I thought to myself, my sisters been hiding these damn things for awhile while I'm sitting here thirsty as hell, and I wondered why I didn't notice that soda on the bar before hand and wonder who in the house was hiding Big Red (people around here often horde sodas).

Ah, yes.. Hording sodas.. I do that with my Cheerwine... and as an aside.. I haven't had a Big Red in years.. can't find them around here anymore.

Well, then.. Perhaps you had foresight? ie., The soda wasn't really there on the counter when you walked past with the one in your hand, but your mind saw it there because that is where you would find it later. Kind of a glimpse into your near future?

Dude, time to lay off the pipe, seriously.

I'm not sure, it looked pretty real to me. I don't think I was looking into the future, I've never had any kind of special abilities or premonitions or anything of that sort.
I got a feeling that it's more like a sort of time-travel thing. Like it had already happened, but hadn't. If that makes sense.
I wonder what would have happened if I would have thrown that can into the trash when I seen it. Would my soda have dissapeared completely? Or would had my original drink not have dissapeared, making the drink I threw in the trash vanish?

This make me remember the question: If a tree falls in the woods and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?
Your first though is of course it does, that question is just silly. But I'd advise you to watch this video on quantum mechanics, you might think differently
It can be proven that just merely by there being an observer, particles act differently. How would a particle even realize that there is an observer even present? Like it has a concience of its own.

It's this experiment which make me not completely rule out the idea that if no one was around, really strange things could possibly happen. (Maybe the tree doesn't make a noise?) Maybe even particle time-travel; or.. a soda moving from one place to another while I'm out of the room? Or a soda being two places at once, and one canceling itself out when the observer leaves the room. (btw I should probably add that the restroom I used is connected to my room. I didn't leave my room, no one came in.)

Double slit experiment - Enjoy



Watch that video and while your at it, go to your local library and check out A Brief History of Time by Steven Hawking. Maybe you'll realize that things aren't always as they seem.

How many kids would have prayed before going through that ally? my guess is 1 out of 10, and she did it first not second.

Hrrmm... Do you watch Tales from the Darkside reruns? There was a similar type episode that reaired not too long ago. If you haven't seen it, watch for it on SciFi... their Tales from the Darkside mini-marathons run usually at least once a month.

I don't watch TV. But I'll keep my eyes out for this.



The story said she lives in a small town. It was very late aswell. I don't know how small her town was, but I'm guessing not many people would walk down the dark alley in the middle of the night. Besides, what teenage girl would even go that direction if there is a strange man standing at the end and its late? (It is an alley, I mean.. comeon). To me it just sounds like another one of those bulletins that float around myspace created by a devout Christian or something. I could always be wrong though.
Besides, this thread isn't about the bulletin, it's about my experience.

The episode was called Effect and Cause.. and this woman saw the effects of an event before they happened. At the beginning an ambulance shows up, then she falls down the stairs and breaks her leg.. When the paramedics knock on the door, they tell the woman's friend that they had gotten a call about someone falling down the stairs before she had even fallen.... Then, all these other weird things happen. One of my favorite episodes actually.

Sounds interesting. What time does this show come on? (I'm central.)

Well, I just checked the SciFi schedules. The next mini-marathon is on the 28th.. They start their daily mini marathons at 7am central, and run them until 3pm. But, they aren't airing Effect and Cause again until February 6th at 7 am.

K, Thanks a lot. I'll be sure to check that out

Yes it does

Thanks for taking my words out of context. I was not referring to the missing time part, I was referring the the logical reasoning after that.



You can tell that is what I was talking about by the statement after "That makes perfect sense."
This part: "Though this was more extreme of an absent minded move than just forgetting and placeing it next to me; which I thought about very hard afterwards."

Is this the part where I get to roll my eyes at you for being ignorant?

Oh and I love your signature; the part about there being no such thing as dinosaurs. Thats great. Really. You seriously don't believe that do you? It's just a joke, right?

Yes, choosing to shorten quotes often leads to stripping the true meaning of what someone was saying in the first place. And what I said about missing time was a joke, which is why I began the next sentence with the word "seriously". And nowhere in his post, did he refer to the missing time, yet instead, he responded to the remainder of what I had to say. He seemed to have gotten that it was in jest. I'm known for being a bit of a smart aleck, so I think that was apparent to him.

Actually it was a bit confusing that it had to do with the same paragraph, as you made it a paragraph in itself. If I was mistaken I apologize. No need to call me ignorant, "sky". Since you are new here I will let it slide and you are welcome.

Now, no, dinosaurs do not exist. This is fact. Sorry, come again.

Edit: Oh and I know you are joking about the dinosaurs. But you can never tell, maybe you haven't been here long enough. But there are indeed people here that believe they still exist.

I appologize for calling you ignorant. I just felt a little bit threatened by the way you said that and took it out of context, everyone makes mistakes.

(I actually found it kind of amusing because after I took the personality test in the General section I noticed that what I did was completely associated with a person with a "Engineer" personality (INTP)."

When you say people believe they still exist, do you mean literally still exist, or that people believe that they have existed?
I can understand the joke if people believe they still exist. Since the term dinosaur applies specifically to extint species from the Mesozoic era (though there are animals like the horse shoe crab which are kind of like un-evolved "dinosaurs")

Your signature says that they aren't real though, not that they don't exist. So I'm guessing that means you believe they never have. Maybe I'm taking this way to literally though, like you said. I'm the new guy

btw, thanks IamLoner; and yes, I did realize you were kidding

Dude i was like bleepin a bleepin soda then it like bleepin moved isn't that bleepin wierd dude.Next time i like steal a bleepin soda from my bleepin sister i'll like bleepin watch it with camera dude.lmao

btw dinos do exist.think crocs or whales,lol

Thanks for the un-needed, un-intelligent posts in my thread. I really appreciate it.
And no, dinosaurs do not exist. The term dinsoaur is exclusively used for extinct reptiles from the Mesozoic period, like I said. Dinosaurs are exinct.
"Any reptile of the subclass Archosauria distinguished from other reptiles by the features of the pelvic bones. May be herbivores, carnivores, bipedal, or quadripedal and range from the Triassic period to the Cretaceous period."

"they were large yet obviously terrestrial, unlike the aquatic ichthyosaurs and plesiosaurs that were already known; they had five vertebrae in their hips, whereas most known reptiles have only two; and, rather than holding their limbs sprawled out to the side in the manner of lizards (alligator), dinosaurs held their limbs under the body in columnar fashion, like elephants and other large mammals."
Brittanica - Dinosaurs

Though many believe that birds rather, are the only real living dinosaurs today. This is debated however baised on the theory that birds evolved from a direct lineage from before the "dinosaurs".

Come back after that butt heals for another if you want

Hello .
Yes in the cryptozoology section there are quite a few people that think dinosaurs still exist...I don't know why they think this because they're basically disregarding science. They think there could still be some existing in the Congo under the name of a creature called Mokele Mumbo or something..not sure of the spelling. But natives there also say rhinos and elephants are also mokele Mumbo lol.

didn't you learn crocs are dinos in 4th grade.lol

Ah, well I'm going to be sure to steer clear of that section. I hear stupidity can be contageous!!



sh!t!! Where's my mask!?!

I still dont understand what happened to the soda.

I may not agree with you,because crocs are dinos.(btw ive never been to the zoo section).But that last post as funny sky.

In other words he thinks his soda moved,lol

sky were you trying to be funny when you wrote the op?

Obviously neither of you have the brain capacity to understand any of this (which isn't hard to understand) and are much to close minded to even begin to comprehend it. Please refrain from posting in my threads.
Thanks.

This has nothing to do with a soda merely "moving". This is something much more complex than that, and you would not understand and cannot understand. So please, refrain from posting in my threads if you only have ignorance to contribute.




Are you trying to be funny by telling me that crocs are still dinosaurs when I just proved that wrong in my preview post? How blind and ignorant can you possibly be?

I would explain this all (again) but I know it would be a complete waste of my time because I'm sure it will just blow over your tiny, closed shut minds. Like I said, obviously your brain does not have the capacity to comprehend any of this. Just the same as you cannot comprehend that crocodiles are not dinosaurs.

That made me laugh, hard.

..That's how INTELEGENT people converse didn't you know that?

Sorry, I'm really ignorant and have un apropriate urges to laugh at funny things that are said with no ill intentions and based solely in light humor.


On to the topic...

All kinds of external and internal things could have made this happen.

But don't let other people define what it is to you, because even though it could be something explainable it still has the right to have a meaning to you. So getting other peoples opinions is just fine and dandy and that's exactly what you are going to get others peoples OPINION. Just because it's an opinion you don't like doesn't make them ignorant in fact it makes you come off as ignorant as you're the one who asked for the opinion in the first place. Plus your conversational skills doesn't give a very good impression of a person you'd take seriously.

anyways, ANYTHING could have made this happen like I said before so with something that commonly happens to people with such a vast amount of typical every day occurrence's and conditions that could make this happen paranormal and acts of God would only be thought as the reason if say that soda was still there as if it were still in a glass but the glass was gone and you went to grab it and your hand went through it, than just maybe it could be considered as a paranormal occurrence.


Nothing about this seems paranormal, and I think if there is a God he has better things to do than steal soda pop.

If you're on any type of medications, over the counter cold meds, being tired, staring at a computer screen for too long, stress, anxiety, rapid thoughts, hair dye fumes, distraction, a living person moved it, blah blah blah there's too many real life practical things that could make this happen..

Maybe you're new to this board, I don't remember if you posted that you are or not but really don't be offended by people not really thinking this is a big deal, yes it may be a big deal to you, but a lot of people on this board have seen things that are so extreme that this is just really mundane and trivial because it's highly explainable. It's an occurrence that has happened to most likely everyone a number of times in their life ,on a daily basis for some people, so maybe you have not got the feel for this place yet and sorry if things come off as rude and such, but you're dealing with many different types of people which all have strong opinions. There's the people who have seen and experienced something that most people could ever imagine, people who have lived out true honest miracles, people who are extreme skeptics who will fight you on everything no matter what, people who are completely delusional who are suffering with mental illness and see and hear things due to that and would swear that these things really happen because to them it is real, and people who come on here just looking for attention and you can't trust a thing that comes out of their mouths with so with this many types of people on one site that deal with extremely touchy topics and all these people being at a different level with their convictions you're going to get crap from end of the stick, just remember don't take it personal, You've more than likely have used sarcasm at some point in your life and i'm sure you wouldn't like being called ignorant just because of a little humor.
If it was a big deal for you than that's great maybe it will cause you to get in touch with the spiritual side of things.

_end rant here, you get what you asked for, and you asked for what you got._

You're correct, I did come here for opinions. I wasn't coming here for ignorant posts like silverracerkh2005 is replying with. That is why I asked him to refrain from posting like that. I don't mind people explaining what it could have been, maybe it was all in my head, things of that sort. Hell even a "I don't believe you." Is fine enough. But I'm not here for completely ignorant replies with nothing to back up their views though like this



Might I add that the reason there is so many bleeped out words is because I had to go back and fix them, moderators request. The message was sent to a good friend of mine, and I was extremely shaken, that should explain the way the message was written. I can't help it, when I get like that I use lots of foul language. Don't ask my why, everyone behaves in different ways whenever they experience something they believe cannot be explained. I figured it could be read in the context it was sent in as it was not meant to be posted as an intelligent post on a unexplained mysteries forum. It was for a very good friend, and I was extremely shaken. I just started typing and let my fingers fly.



I never meant to imply that I believed this had anything to do with God. Though if it did, it has nothing to do with "stealing soda pop" it would rather have something to do with opening my eyes that strange things does happen, things that cannot be explained. Before this happened I was VERY sceptical to things of this nature. My best friend (who I wrote the original message to) is into things of this nature, just weird stuff that cannot be explained. I never believed in that sort of stuff. Sure I thought weird things happen, but I always believed that everything could be explained logically. I'm a EXTREMELY logical person, it is in my nature. I think of everything logically and with reason. I hold my ability to think that way very highly.
(I recently took a personality test on this forum under general and received the personality based on logic skills. I also received 100% logical thinking on the Multiple Intelligence part of the test. I was the first I seen to receive such a high % on the logical part.) Like I said, it is my nature to think logically and reasonably first, and if I cannot explain it, I think of the other things it could have been.
This experience opened up my eyes to things I normally would have had them closed to. Maybe just a personal experience to show that not eveything can be explained with logic. I believe that this was my experience that was suppose to do that, it was something more than "God stealing a soda". It was something personal. I don't know who or what did it, I could go through and describe lots of crazy out-there ideas of what I think it could have been. But in the end, I wouldn't have any way to prove or disprove what has happened. So I just take it as a sign, whether it was real, or I just blanked out. Either way I DO NOT do that, so if it had something to do with me completely blanking out, that I have never in my life done. Then it is still a personal experience that means something, at least to me.



I am not on any type of medications or drugs of any kind. I was not tired, it was in the morning time after have been awake for at least an hour or more. No distractions, though I do have anxiety. This was on one of my best days in a long long time though. I was feeling very good this day, very happy. And like I said, my Dad was at work, my sister at school. No one else was in the house, or came into the house. There is NO "real life practical things" that could have made this happen, and if there was I would have already thought of that by now. I thought about all that the moment it happened. Like I said, I'm very very logical. I already said that the soda was ALREADY there when I first walked out of my sisters room with my soda in my hand! (In the kitchen on the bar, the exact same soda that turned out to be the one I lost in my room.) I'm NOT making this up, I'm NOT confused on this fact. I look directly at the soda, with the one I just got in my hand, and I thought about why I had not seen that soda sitting on my bar before hand seeing how I was very thirsty since I had woke up, looking for something to drink. I understand how completely illogical this sounds, and how out there it is. I mean, I would think someone else posting this would be out of their mind, there is just too many things it could have been. But the fact is, which I'm sure you will understand, no one knows better about the experience than the person who actually was there. I don't expect anyone to believe this, I was just putting it out there incase someone had a similar thing happen to them that is completely unexplainable atleast to the ability of the person who had the experience. (Such as mine was since the soda was already sitting in that spot BEFORE I had mine "disappear/move/whatever" and there was no one or anything that could have moved it. I never left my room after bringing the soda in here! My restroom is in my room.) I'm saying that atleast to my knowledge, there was 2 of the same sodas in existence at one point in time. And the one I had in my room vanished the second I left the room; so the one I had seen on the bar, turned out to the be exact same one that I "lost" in my room. Which was already sitting on the bar, BEFORE I "lost" mine. (on the other side of the house.)



I'll be sure to explain more clearly what I was asking for next time I post anything of this sort. Everyone else's posts were completely fine, I enjoyed the feedback. But I do not believe that silverracerkh2005 was being sarcastic in anyway (I'm sure I would have noticed.). I mean, they still think crocs are dinosaurs after I just provided the undeniable proof that they are not. Clearly this is ignorance, not sarcasm or whatever you are trying to say it is. I'm not here for ignorance, I can take sarcasm, I can be very sarcastic. And like I said, I don't mind criticism, as long as someone criticizes me in an at least semi-mature manner. His posts were none of those things in anyway and was not beneficial to this topic in anyway.

it is a interesting situation you had , but I think the only way you can figure out what happened is to set up a camcorder and voice recorder and hope that you catch it again . Unfortunatly people like to be Jack**** and complain or make fun of someone who came here for an opinion . OK , you did go a little crazy with the words , but you were excited , IT HAPPENS !

Thanks for understanding
But like I said, this was the first time anything like this has ever happened to me. I'm not sure that I would ever be able to get this on video happening again. And as I explained in the other posts where I linked the double-slit experiment, I believe this has something to do with that. I think if there was an observer (camera/person/anything to observe) it wouldn't have happened at all. Like I said, it reminds me of the "If a tree falls in the woods and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?" paradox. As you can see by the double-slit experiment though, particles act different the moment there is something to observe them. When there is no observer, they seem to "take every possible route." Watch the Double-slit experiment and you'll understand more about what I am talking about. This video explains it in a very easy to understand way. Though if you are looking for a little more about it, check out A Brief History of Time by Steven Hawking, he goes into it more fully.

It's ignorant to say dinos don't exist when you were taught that some still do in 4 grade.As for your post I was trying to be funny(btw some think I was) sorry if i offended you.I own a multi million dollar dsl company and was tested to be a genius.And I still didn't understand that.everyone makes spelling errors but the way that was done sucks.I nver said you were lieing.i don't know you so I have no idea if you would lie.I was just joking about the way this was typed thats all.once again sorry if I offended you,but you have to admit that was funny.Lol I have seen you in other topics and agree with you alot lets just put that bhind us.I promis not to make fun of you anymore if you will do the same.

-Kodi

Agreed. Sorry for the misunderstanding.
